NORMS OVERVIEW

EN ISO 9001

The standards which we apply to our products are as stringent as the quality guidelines of the companies we deliver to. ELTEN is a company with a quality management system certified to DIN EN ISO 9001.

EN ISO 20345

Of course, all ELTEN safety shoes are manufactured in accordance with EN ISO 20345 and thus offer the wearer the highest mandatory protection level. They are equipped with a corrosion-resistant safety toe cap for high stress (pressure / impact loading of 200 joule). Furthermore, ELTEN also sticks to some additional requirements mentioned in the old DIN EN 345, which stipulated even higher quality standards.

SB all basic demands are met.

S1 all basic demands are met. On top of this, the following additional requirements are fulfilled: + closed heel part also for low shoes, + antistatic, + energy assimilation at the heel part.

S2 all basic demands of S1 are met. On top of this, water permeability and water vapour absorption are fulfilled.

S3 all basic demands of S2 are met. On top of this, profiling of the cutsole and the application of a penetration-protecting sole.

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENT

It is important that safety shoes be chosen for the established protection requirements and the corresponding area of use. A suitable shoe must be chosen on the basis of a hazard analysis. You can also receive detailed information about this at the corresponding mutual indemnity associations.

CE Labelling means that for all ELTEN safety shoes, type examination certificates are available. ELTEN thereby testifies the conformity with the European guidelines and confirms that ELTEN safety shoes have been submitted to all relevant testings.

DESIGN

Together with internationally renowned designers, our in-house and outside development teams follow their creations from the first drafts through the numerous wearing test at the early prototype stage on to production and finally market launch. Our designs are highly contemporary without following short-lived fashions and they are tailored to meet the needs of the various fields for which they are intended.

A safety shoe for a building worker looks different from protective footwear for a fire-fighter. What’s more, our women’s models are designed on a special women’s shoe last that takes into account the specific physical characteristics of a woman’s foot, rather than being simply based on the same last as men’s shoes, as is so often the case.

A host of awards and appreciations prove that good, distinctive design is something we take seriously. Because ELTEN shoes adapt and change – just like the people who wear them.
